Long-distance chronometric leveling with a portable optical clock

J. Grotti, I. Nosske, S. B. Koller +19

We have measured the geopotential difference between two locations separated by by comparison of two optical lattice clocks via an interferometric fiber link, uti…

Long term measurement of the Sr clock frequency at the limit of primary Cs clocks

R. Schwarz, S. Dörscher, A. Al-Masoudi +7

We report on a series of 42 measurements of the transition frequency of the 429~THz (5s)~S--(5s5p)~P line in Sr taken over three years from 2017 to 2019.…

Dynamic decoupling of laser phase noise in compound atomic clocks

Sören Dörscher, Ali Al-Masoudi, Marcin Bober +4

The frequency stability achieved by an optical atomic clock ultimately depends on the coherence of its local oscillator. Even the best ultrastable lasers only allow interrogation t…

Direct comparisons of European primary and secondary frequency standards via satellite techniques

F. Riedel, A. Al-Masoudi, E. Benkler +46

We carried out a 26-day comparison of five simultaneously operated optical clocks and six atomic fountain clocks located at INRIM, LNE-SYRTE, NPL and PTB by using two satellite-bas…

Search for transient variations of the fine structure constant and dark matter using fiber-linked optical atomic clocks

B. M. Roberts, P. Delva, A. Al-Masoudi +51

We search for transient variations of the fine structure constant using data from a European network of fiber-linked optical atomic clocks. By searching for coherent variations in…

Guidelines for developing optical clocks with fractional frequency uncertainty

Moustafa Abdel-Hafiz, Piotr Ablewski, Ali Al-Masoudi +42

There has been tremendous progress in the performance of optical frequency standards since the first proposals to carry out precision spectroscopy on trapped, single ions in the 19…

A high-performance optical lattice clock based on bosonic atoms

Stefano Origlia, Mysore Srinivas Pramod, Stephan Schiller +9

Optical lattice clocks with uncertainty and instability in the -range and below have so far been demonstrated exclusively using fermions. Here, we demonstrate a bosonic o…

Lattice-induced photon scattering in an optical lattice clock

Sören Dörscher, Roman Schwarz, Ali Al-Masoudi +3

We investigate scattering of lattice laser radiation in a strontium optical lattice clock and its implications for operating clocks at interrogation times up to several tens of sec…

Test of special relativity using a fiber network of optical clocks

P. Delva, J. Lodewyck, S. Bilicki +28

Phase compensated optical fiber links enable high accuracy atomic clocks separated by thousands of kilometers to be compared with unprecedented statistical resolution. By searching…

A transportable optical lattice clock with uncertainty

S. B. Koller, J. Grotti, St. Vogt +5

We present a transportable optical clock (TOC) with Sr. Its complete characterization against a stationary lattice clock resulted in a systematic uncertainty of ${7.4 \times…

Realization of a time-scale with an accurate optical lattice clock

C. Grebing, A. Al-Masoudi, S. Dörscher +7

Optical clocks are not only powerful tools for prime fundamental research, but are also deemed for the re-definition of the SI base unit second as they now surpass the performance…

Noise and instability of an optical lattice clock

Ali Al-Masoudi, Sören Dörscher, Sebastian Häfner +2

We present an analysis of the different types of noise from the detection and interrogation laser in our strontium lattice clock. We develop a noise model showing that in our setup…

A strontium lattice clock with inaccuracy and its frequency

Stephan Falke, Nathan Lemke, Christian Grebing +10

We have measured the absolute frequency of the optical lattice clock based on Sr at PTB with an uncertainty of using two caesium fountain clocks. This i…
